It seems as though one of the main question regarding die flaws is do they get bigger as time goes on. Part of the problem is that we do not have a decent time line of crosses to be able to test that theory. No one knows for sure what time a certain cross was made, therefore the presence of flaws on one make of cross but not another may be due to a different dies, and not necessarily a progression of a flaw on the same die.
Generally, the time line for juncker RKs has been suggested as follows. I am not throwing this out as fact, but it seems as though most have suggested this is the case. Perhaps this will be open to debate also. From older to newer
unmarked neusilber> 800 only, 800 dot, L/12 800, 800 L/12> lazy 2 or micro 2
The 800 only, 800 dot and the L/12s could be debated. I have focused on two areas of juncker crosses and show the images for people to conclude what they want. It appears to me as though the flaws get bigger if one accepts the above time line. This is by my eye and there may be some disagreement and perhaps my conclusions are flawed on the data. If so, please post your opinions after taking a look. Let me know what you think, as if we can show progression of specific flaws over an accepted time line, perhaps this will have application and importance to other makers.
